Abstract
Interlayer tunneling technique has been used for spectroscopy of charge density wave (CDW) energy gaps, Δ 1,2, in NbSe3 subsequently opened at the Fermi surface on decreasing temperature at Tp1=145 K (CDW1) and at Tp2=60 K (CDW2). We found that the CDW2 formation is accompanied by an increase of the CDW1 gap below Tp2. The maximum enhancement of Δ 1, δ Δ 1, is about 10%. The effect observed has been predicted theoretically as resulting from the joint phase locking of both CDWs with the underlying crystalline lattice below Tp2.
